My friend got a mid six-figure advance for his book....and was a first time writer. And since then he sold the manuscript to 9 foreign publishers, each in a separate deal; and on top of that his book has been optioned by a major Producer to be made into a movie. His book's title is Bringing_ Home- The , Birkin. I don't suggest taking any of the advice you read here too literally. (Just like the advice given out by the Handbag Authenticators).

Now, you might say there is nothing wrong with this, perhaps the Moderator felt that publishingguru was saying something unacceptable. But how would you like it if you posted:
"I do NOT like Rebecca Minkoff handbags"
and then a Moderator came in an edited your post to:
"I like Rebecca Minkoff handbags"
Therein lies the fundamental problem with the Purse Forum. Plain and Simple!
(Hey, what can you expect from a guy that titles his photo of animal cookies, "Zoology", and includes a dinosaur. Moron.)
